Congratulations! We went from a Gladiator (which we really liked) to our ‘24 Black Diamond that we like even more!

Beautiful! I came from a Wrangler, too. I had my 2013 Rubicon for 11.5 years, but I wanted a Bronco as soon as they came out. Finally got my Badlands in 2024: it’s significantly more comfortable to drive than my Wrangler (especially the driver’s seat).

I do love your Raptor. It’s a minor thing, but I really wish that I had the instrument cluster that’s on the Raptors and the 2025 Broncos.

Love that! A fellow long time convert!
Other than the Nacho Gladiator (it had the 3.0l EcoDiesel), my major complaint was power/torque. This Bronco has that in spades with a little better mileage! Looking forward to customizing it as well as the aftermarket support (those nice people who take dumb peoples money) seems to be on par with the Jeep crowd

Congrats! That’s a beautiful rig—the Code Orange is my favorite color.

I’m right there with you and others in this thread. I was a die-hard Chrysler/Jeep guy for years (01 TJ, 07 JKUR, 15 JKUR, and a 21 75th Anniversary Power Wagon) before picking up a used ‘24 Bronco Raptor. Man, the BR is just incredible - I’m absolutely loving it.

I actually lived up in your area back when I had the ‘01 TJ. Had a home in Guthrie and worked at the Hertz data center in OKC. Beautiful area, I miss the summers there with the top and doors off.

Oh nice! Yeah, definitely right in my area! I've had to pull down my Jeep paraphernalia in the garage! lol
